All forms of success, from being a great mother to being a great actor, take tenacity and determination. They say for every light on Broadway there is a broken heart, an unrealized dream — and that's the same in every profession.
Sutton Foster

这句语录背后的故事
Foster closed her Ball State address by expanding her message beyond the performing arts to all professions. She invoked the Broadway saying about broken hearts behind every marquee light to make a universal point about the cost of ambition. Having grown up in a modest Georgia household where her father sold Chevys for GM and nobody knew much about theater, Foster understood that tenacity isn't exclusive to any one field. She urged graduates to be their own champions, blaze their own paths, and want success more than anyone else — while also nurturing real relationships, continuing to learn, and never being a jerk. It was a closing message that wove together every thread of her speech into a single honest truth: meaningful success in any arena requires relentless determination.
